Thread: Are any of these players available
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Pens3lieve</b></div><div>your thoughts on what LAK would want for PLD?</div></div>

I'm not sure there's a good way to answer that question. He's not worth what the Kings would need to get in order to consider trading him. Blake has essentially gone all-in on PLD being at least a top quality 2C, and if that doesn't come to fruition, then he's likely going to lose his job.

So if Blake is still the GM (if he gets fired this summer, then all bets are off), I think he needs to get a return comparable to what he paid to consider moving him. A 2nd round pick, a solid middle-six winger on a reasonable contract, and a young quality top-six player.

I again emphasize that he's not worth that return, but that's what it would take.
